Backpack.tf Automatic

I have some questions about automatic

 

Why do I have to give my info away?

Do I just let it go while I'm ingame and it just does the trades?

Could it possibly go mad (maybe become self aware) and go on a accepting frenzy?

1. if by info you mean user and pass, because the bot needs to access your account

2. yes, it is automatic

3. no, it's a bot, it's coded

im not really a fan of giving my user/pass away

is it trustworthy?

if you want to use the service you have to

 

no one is going to take your info, only you have it, the information the bot has is not released

its a bot developed by brad, the creator of bp.tf

it isn't controlled by anyone so to say, so it's not like the phishing bots where it has a 'supreme overlord'

 

even if it could give away your pass, the person who got your pass has to pass steam guard

You also have to enter your steam guard info, just saying.

 

It needs your details as it's a steam client of its own, meaning you don't need to run your desktop client for it to work.

If you're going to use it, make an alt account to minimize your risk, and only put the items on it that you're trading, and take stuff off as soon as you're done.  That's how I would use it if I was going to, which I'm not.

It's open source, ~400 people have been using it without any complaints about getting hijacked.

The steam guard code is stored in the settings file.

That doesn't matter, with the generated steam guard code you can access steam from any computer. It's different from the code you got in the email.

With that code (called a sentry file), you can access Steam without a steam guard notification from any computer, yes. It differs from the short code received in the email and is a lot longer.

You'll have to wait a week. Welcome to Valve. It happens to me sometimes despite accessing my account from only 1 computer and 1 browser since 2009.

For me it happens every time I log into the store page from my browser.  If I just log into steam community, I don't have this problem.  I dunno why this is and I dunno why the store and community have separate logins, but it pisses me off because I can't trade from my browser for a whole week if I want to use the store on it.  Meanwhile, trading still works from within my steam client, so basically that means I have to load up a game, open the overlay, and paste trade links into it whenever I want to trade.
